29. Your up/ down rudder system is now ready to go
a. Pull on the right “T” handle to lower the rudder. Pull
the line tight and cleat off to hold it in the down position.
b. To raise the rudder, uncleat the lock down line and pull
the “T” handle on the left side of the boat. IMPORTANT!
When the rudder is in the locked down position, it will
have some flexibility in the system due to stretch in
the rope, but it should be uncleated and raised prior
to beaching.
30. Place the stickers on the “T” handles to label which one does what. The “UP” sticker should go
on the left handle and the “DOWN” sticker should go on the right handle. To ensure a good adhesion,
make sure that the handles are clean of any water or debris.
